Even at a young age, the Cask 23 shows clearly what it is: a blend of the choicest portions of the Fay and SLV vineyards. It displays Fay's wonderfully vibrant and honest morello cherry aroma, along with toasted spices, a waft of woodsmoke and pencil lead. It has the immediate succulence and completeness of SLV, harnessed to Fay's restraint and elegance. It is indeed the perfect combination of the two - bravo! With fabulously refined texture, it is graceful, fine and pure, with such persistence of flavour that one sip can last for a minute or more. Even though this has an exceptionally long life of 3-4 decades ahead of it, it is easy to appreciate at this early stage.

Winemaking
Fermentation in 100% stainless steel tanks. Each grape parcel vinified and aged individually in small French oak barrels for 21 months, allowing distinct characteristics and subtle spice notes to emerge. Blending, later on, resulted in a final blend of 56.8% 'Fay' and 43.2% S.L.V.
